Glenanne barracks bombing

The Glenanne barracks bombing occurred at 11:30 PM on 31 May 1991 when the Provisional IRA used a truck bomb to attack a British Army base near Glenanne, County Armagh, Northern Ireland. The driverless truck rolled down a hill behind the barracks and crashed through the fence, and the bomb exploded in the base, killing three soldiers and wounding fourteen. The base was never rebuilt, angering some Ulster Scots unionists.
